Sorry to hear of your challenges. But nice to see you around here.

How's the law business going down in south Georgia? I hope to be passing through soon and will drop you a note prior.

I expect you have sense of humor when it comes to jury selection. One attorney I had during my week of jury duty in Cherokee county seemed to have missed the boat. What would you expect when you ask the panel if they have pre-conceived notions about personal injury attorneys? Ambulance chaser came to mind which did not make him happy but it served me well.

Mike

Looks like a solid offering and a step in the right direction.

We are all dumber because of your post, I award you no points.

Yea that was probably the most uneducated, insanely wrong post I've seen to date on this forum.

-----------------------------------

IDK which one of your posts are so wrong... I think you just beat yourself here in making an even worst post. The guy asked about retarding timing and you said why would u add timing? Its a different map? LOL

You strongly need to research basic tuning. How engines work. What ignition timing is. And stop regurgitating how you think tunes work and dont work.

Seeing almost all of cstavaru's mods are BMW ones, sounds like he should just stick with whatever they put out, and save himself and the rest of the folks he's trying to "educate" here some grief!

My head was not cooked, my exhaust valves however were showing play and did not seal 100% so my shop advised to renovate it and change valve guides since the head was apart.

From my tuning experience on turbo cars I agree with Shiv - it is important that timing is controlled not just boost. Timing, fuel, boost maps. It's as simple as that.

I only have BMW mods until now (save for the drop-in filter and the wheels) because my car is only 2 years old and also because I can understand enough about engine tuning and I researched alot in order not to be fooled by marketing ploys and rush myself into decisions. I am planning very carefully my upgrades because I own my car and I care about it alot. I advise you to do the same.

The fuel & timing at the 8.8psi load/rpm map it's much more different than a proper 16-18psi map in the DME. If you force the car by fooling the DME sensor into running into running the 8.8psi map and forcing it to run 10-19psi; you would end up running LEANER & MORE TIMING... and yes, users would end up using race gas/methanol injection patches & would end up getting more power; but at expense of reliability! And, also if they end up bypassing the knock sensors & codes, guess you don't leave much of the DME to protect your engine.

BTW, piggy backs cannot control the fuzzylogic timing function on ANY BMW cansbus MSD/MSV/MEVD/etc DME!!! Only working in the code can DO IT CORRECTLY period. Piggyback have no idea which of MANY timing tables the car is running that depends on computer adaptation at ALL times.

For your own sake, just stop. The more you write the more visible Your lack of intelligence becomes. Although it is entertaining, you are really just promoting idiocy.

Oh wait, were Just fooled by marketing hype, And you actually know a lot about the way each tune functions. That's it.

OMG this is NOT HOW IT WORKS...how much misinformation do people buy into? Jeez, 95% of people on this board need to stop relying on interwebz heresy and read some credible information! Preferably information that has NOTHING to do with the N54 so as to have a basic understanding of how engine tuning works!!!

I refrained to answer to you because I believe that you do not worth an answer.

However, just being rude and impolite doesn't replace technical arguments. I think you are among the extremely few people on this forum that posts only insults and no other on-topic stuff. If you keep posting insults you will alter the Google ranking of this forum and the moderators will have reasons to be upset

Well, what credible information you can bring? Do they have timing tables info? Lambda tables? Or perhaps how the piggy backs uses some sort of cheap +30 ohms variable resistors +r low tech processors to fool the DME Green leaf processor, etc?

I just bring in facts, and ask the Piggy back makers to show you just one of many ignition tables from any MSD8x and then ask them if they understand which state table they are running on now on the DME?

[stressdoc]

Please cease and desist on the personal comments. No more derogatory crap will be tolerated. Just stop now, no retaliation.

If you want to comment on specific factual issues, great.

sorry to hear that --

are they still using the Tremec box ??
if so, you may want to upgrade the synchro assy on 2nd and 3rd -- they unfortunately take the most beating -- 2nd gear translates a lot of torque

once youre out of warranty - that is

+1. Really want more facts from Sevak.

[cn555ic]

Sevak is really doing the community an injustice by not even posting what the hell is going on with his car...Bump for some info as many people are running thier cars hard and a little insight to what happened to his car is not much to ask for...

[Jeff@TopGearSolutions]

Its likely he may not be posting for a reason...... think about it.

I do agree that would be a shame for community, but put yourself in his shoes. Maybe he cant afford to buy a new engine and this is his best option?

Regardless the news will leak out one way or another eventually.

Uh, if you are implying what I think you are implying... then why the hell would Terry post the warning?? That kind of defeats the purpose of paying him to shut up now wouldn't it?
